MADAM SPEAKER: Presenting Petitions Reading and Receiving Petitions Presenting Reports by Standing and Special Committees The adjourned debate on the proposed motion of the Honourable the Attorney-General. The Honourable the Member for Rhineland. MR. J. M. FROESE (Rhineland): Madam Speaker, I adjourned debate yesterday on this motion in order to get a chance to look at the report that is in Votes and Proceedings of which we have a copy today, As you know, I was not a member of the committee that drew up the lists and therefore I had no knowledge as to what committees I would be put on. I have now looked at the list of the various committees and I would kindly request that my name be added to the Privileges and Elections Committee and to the Statutory Regulations and Orders Committee. MADAM SPEAKER: All those in favour please say aye. MR. FROESE: Madam Speaker, I would like an answer on this question. HON. STEW ART E. McLEAN (Attorney-General) (Dauphin): Madam Speaker, this is a matter which poses a difficult problem. I think that it would not be advisable to accede to the request made by the Honourable the Member for Rhineland. I would point out to him that as a Member of the Legislature he is entitled to attend any of the meetings of the committees of the House, to participate in the debates, although not to vote, if he is not a member of the committee.
